The literary magazine Plima was his brainchild, and he edited it from 1993 to 1996. Since 1900 he has run a school of creative writing, drama and prose. He founded the Epilogue Theatre in Zagreb in 1995 and was the company's in-house playwright from 1995 until 2001. He has also tried his hand at directing his own plays. Together with his wife, the actress Mladena Gavran, he founded the GAVRAN Theatre in 2002.

Miro Gavran, né en 1961, est de loin l'auteur croate contemporain le plus prolixe et le plus traduit dans le monde. Avec ses romans et ses nouvelles pour enfants, il a récolté une quinzaine  de prix littéraires internationaux parmi lesquels le Prix Littéraire international d'Europe Centrale (1999) et le Prix du Cercle Européen en 2003.

Difficile, vu de France, de mesurer la portée de cet écrivain de quarante-six ans, publié en dixsept langues. Dans la plupart des pays de l'Est, il compte parmi les références du théâtre moderne. Un festival lui est entièrement dédié chaque année en Slovaquie : le Gavranfest.

Ses oeuvres sont le reflet des problématiques actuelles, de la guerre dans les Balkans à l'alter mondialisme - sujet de sa dernière pièce de théâtre : How to kill the president. À côté de ses sujets à consonance politique, Gavran aime jouer avec l'Histoire, mettant en scène des rencontres entre de grandes figures et les traitant sur un mode plutôt imaginaire : Molière et  Louis XIV dans La Nuit des dieux, Elisabeth II et Shakespeare dans Elisabeth et Shakespeare, ou Tolstoï et Tchekhov dans Tchekhov a dit adieu à Tolstoï.

Gavran a écrit sa première pièce, L'Antigone de Créon, à l'âge de vingt-deux ans et Tchekhov a dit adieu à Tolstoï à vingt-huit ans. En parallèle à une carrière de dramaturge riche d'une trentaine d'oeuvres, il s'est très tôt engagé dans la vie théâtrale de son pays. Directeur artistique du Teatar Gavran à Zagreb, il a fondé le théâtre Epilogue qui a déjà révélé bon nombre de metteurs en scène croates.

Ses principales pièces sont : La Nuit des Dieux, Les Amours de George Washington, Tchekhov dit adieu à Tolstoï, Le Mari de mon épouse, Shakespeare et Elizabeth, Décès dun comédien, Le Patient du Dr Freud, Forget Hollywood, Royauté et filous, Tout sur les femmes, Comment tuer le Président, Nora aujourdhui. Miro Gavran a également publié huit romans : Le Fils oublié (1989), Gens extraordinaires et ordinaires (recueil dhistoires courtes, 1989), Comment on se cassait les jambes (1995), Clara (1997), Margita ou une journée dans une vie antérieure (1999), Judith (2001), Saint Jean Baptiste (2002), Ponce Pilate (2004) et quelques romans pour enfants dont Plein de choses dans ma tête, Comment papa a gagné maman, Lamour aveugle, Les jours heureux, Essaie doublier. Miro Gavran est représenté en France par Patrice Montico - More Agence Conseil.



Miro Gavran:

"Tchekhov a dit Adieu à Tolstoï"

C'était une soirée étrange hier au théâtre Sylvia Montfort. Veille d'élection, retour de vacances ou autre raison, toujours est-il que le public était petit et resserré au centre de cette grande salle comme un groupe de manchots se tenant chaud. Destination Russie, alors forcément on anticipe. Les soirées d'été dans la "Clairière Lumineuse", villégiature de Tolstoï, peuvent être fraîches, sait-on jamais. Un certain Tchékhov, jeune écrivain à succès, est attendu avec sa jolie comédienne d'épouse pour ce qu'il croit être deux semaines de vacances. Mais le vieux lion (pas si fatigué qu'on croit) de la littérature russe a d'autres projets pour son invité. Quant à Sofia Tolstoï, le rôle d'épouse sacrifiée d'un grand génie lui va un peu trop bien pour ne pas éveiller la méfiance.
Miro Gavran, auteur croate contemporain né en 1961, va bien au-delà du dialogue des morts pour installer une rencontre imaginaire entre deux monstres sacrés de la littérature russe, chacun à un stade bien différent de sa carrière. Ce simple contraste, au delà des personnalités distinctes, contient en soi une richesse dramatique qu'exploite à merveille l'auteur. La soif de succès, l'ambition, l'appétit de la jeunesse de Tchékhov, face à la neurasthénie, la malice et la manipulation du vieillard. Et puis il y a les femmes (et leurs gestes pleins de charme)! Elle ne sont pas en reste, bien au contraire, au petit jeu ambiant de la subversion. L'arme atomique de la séduction est déployée aux frontières. Tolstoï à beau prétendre que l'homme est fichu dès qu'il accepte de s'unir à l'une de ces créatures, leur corps souple s'attache et ne vous lâche plus telle une sangsue, pompant toute énergie et désir de création chez son partenaire. Il n'en est pas moins sensible aux charmes de la jeune et ravissante Olga Tchékhov.
Cette pièce, bien construite, intelligente et drôle, évite le piège du bavardage intellectuel entre auteurs pour se concentrer sur l'intrigue, les personnages et la tension dramatique. La notoriété de Tchékhov et Tolstoï sert surtout à alimenter le comique des situations et non à en imposer au spectateur. Pour autant l'imaginaire n'est pas tué par des clowneries superflues, et on est ravi de pouvoir enfin épier cette rencontre mythique, de voir ainsi confrontés ces grands hommes du patrimoine mondial.
La mise en scène nous installe dans l'intérieur d'une datcha stylisée, dont les volets sculptés laissent filtrer la lumière et les sons de l'été. Juste ce qu'il faut de réalisme pour situer la pièce dans son époque. Jean-Claude Drouot et sa barbe fournie campent un Tolstoï bougon, malicieux, imprévisible. Sofia, sa femme et contrepitre est solidement interprétée par Marie-France Santon. Vincent Primault étonne en Tchékhov, qu'on n'imaginait pas dans ce corps, et finit par convaincre. Camille Cottin en Olga flotte un peu entre l'amoureuse, la grisette et l'ambitieuse. Enfin le rôle muet du domestique des Tolstoï aurait pu être mieux exploité par un jeu corporel en contrepoint du texte (danseur, mime?). Petits détails car au total, ce fut un très bon moment.



The Festival d'Avignon, or Avignon Festival, is an annual arts festival held in French city of Avignon. Founded in 1947 by Jean Vilar, it is the oldest extant festival in France and one of the world's greatest.

Miro Gavran's play CREON'S ANTIGONE will be premiered on July 6 in Avignon, France, at the International Theatre Festival.
